Vehicle License Fee is a fee that includes vehicle registration, licensing and other vehicle-related taxes charged by local governments. Rental car suppliers have to pay these taxes on their fleet, but they usually pass them on to the end customers. Since the names of the taxes differ by country, suppliers usually collect them under one name, like Vehicle Licence Fee or License Reimbursement (see more under synonyms). Some counties collect tax only on registration. But in some counties, there is an annual licensing fee or the registration fee is higher for car rental companies.
